User Reviews for The Home Remote

Connects to controller otherwise, does nothing

Was hoping to be able to see my cameras and maybe control locks, lights, thermostat from my phone. But this app only indicates it is aware of the devices, and otherwise nothing happens. I can see through the cameras, or see temperatures, or anything. I’m using a Vera Lite, and despite the documentation saying it’s supports it, I suspect home remote simply doesn’t. It’s a shame, because the dashboard looks well designed and easy to use.

Highly Customizable

I was a user of the now discontinued VeraMate application, and I was looking for a user interface that could give me the data I needed at a glance. I constructed a VeraMate replacement user interface with all of the data and control functions I needed in under two days. There is one thing it seems I cannot do, dynamic tile reordering. When a device is "inactive," it will leave a blank space in the device browser. When the device is "active," it will then fill in that space. A few notes on customizing:The app will run without Designer using default groups.Highly customizable with Designer.A Windows machine is required to run Designer.Designer has a mild learning curve.Some programming knowledge is helpful.I really like this program, and it definitely fulfilled my needs. If you dig in and learn the Designer operating principles, I think you'll be very happy with the end result.

Great connection

This is so easy to use. Linked all my devices without any problems!Try it, you won’t be disappointed.

Brilliant comprehensive Home Control App!

Seems to be hardly any limit to this great app. I use Insteon, X10 via Homeseer, Z-wave, direct IP control, Nexia, Directv, Alexa, etc. It integrates all my legacy control modules and everything I’ve adopted since into a single control app.My only want is for the app to load and refresh devices more quickly (or maybe less often, perhaps a setting for on-demand only), but I understand that this function depends heavily on network latency and sometimes availability of the services web portals.

Fantastically Simple

This app makes it so easy to use my phone as a universal remote, far easier to use and faster than the harmony app. Would be nice if you could choose a custom background, though.

Excellent

I’ve been looking for a better UI for my SmartHome gear - tried a bunch but they’re either too limited or a tinkerer’s dream. Home Remote is what I was looking for. It works with most of my gear and brings it all together on one screen. Better than that, I didn’t have to become conversant in scripting or Linux to do it. And... I sent off a question to the dev and had a HELPFUL response in less than 15 minutes...!

Great with SmartThings

I needed a front end for my SmartThings based home automation and this works perfectly! Use the desktop designer app to get started, then save your work and restore the file on your iOS device.Can't wait to wall-mount my iPad!

This app is a game changer for harmony hub

I just got a harmony hub and was horrified when I opened the app and saw the layouts for my devices. Thank you for providing a device remote app that actually look like a remote and not a jumbled mess with misspellings.

Excellent app and support

Control all of the devices listed from one, simple to use, app. Download the desktop app and you can modify or build your own design. Works great on IPhone and IPad. The developer is quick to respond if you have an issue. Give it a try - you won’t be disappointed.

Works great !

I have been wanting to build a customized Home Automation Dashboard on my iPad for a very long time, and I was very pleased to come across Home Remote. The Designer software was exactly what I was looking for. It provides very powerful interfaces to help me design my ideal dashboard - transparent buttons, scripts, extensive device support, web image feeders, … It does require some basic technical skills though. I’m not a programmer, so I had to spend a bit of time to figure it out, but I have gotten an amazing support from the owner of the software, and I’m very pleased with my results ! His wonderful responsiveness to my questions is definitely worth highlighting in my review.
